Climate Change through the Lens of Energy Transformation

New Earth Politics: Essays from the Anthropocene Edited by SIMON NICHOLSON and SIKINA JINNAH 2016

This chapter explores existing conversations around energy transformation for a New Earth and puts forward ideas toward a conversation that might bridge the divide between how energy is supplied (how we produce) versus those who emphasize the demand side (how we use). The author approaches the problem by looking at four overarching narrative frames around energy and the implications of each for how energy is institutionalized and how it might be transformed. The four narrative frames explored are are ​​climate change, energy security, energy poverty, and local environmental pollution.
